I hope he didn't mistype, Caymans are trash. The back half of the car is ugly. I'm sure it drives nice with the mid engine layout, but just spend the extra dough and get a 911. Listen to Top Gear they know what their talkin about. Just call it a Coxster, boxster with a hard top.

Did you watch that Top Gear review, I posted. Clarkson kills it. He calls it a Coxster, I almost couldn't stop laughing.

I dont listen to everything Clarkson says either, he hates on BMWs new design. I clearly dont agree, since I own an E60.

But you got to admit they could have done better on the rear of the Cayman. Its hideous. Those two lumps on either side of the car, what the hell are those. Puke

I love the 911 and Cayenne, the Boxtser is o.k . But the Cayman is not good looking at all, maybe if you squint your eyes.

Well you're in "luck".

The TG team has signed up to do a US series.

Now that WILL be interesting as they swallow everything they've ever said about American Cars and take the filthy buck.
